You might try a form field. You would have to paste the field in every location where you want the part number to appear.
However, once the field is in place, you should just be able to enter a part number once and then have it appear in all locations.
The trick is that the text field name (such as partno) is identical in all locations.
What you are looking to do is similar to a mail merge or "variable data". I would think a publishing tool would give more satisfactory results than trying to edit a PDF.
